Vashon Island Spring Art Studio Tour 2025
May 10 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
The creativity of Vashon Island’s artists is in full bloom during the Vashon Island Spring Studio Tour, Saturdays and Sundays, May 3-4 and 10-11, 2025, from 10 am to 5 pm. The tour features 43 studios and galleries representing over 140 artists and craftspeople. The organization’s website offers an interactive online map with details about each studio or gallery. Tour locations are spread throughout the island community, from the town center to outlying farms and shores, providing an escape for urban visitors.
A new addition is the VIVA Tour Info Center & Gallery. The center, located in the heart of town at 17816 Vashon Hwy SW, is designed to enhance each visitor’s experience. Knowledgeable Tour Docents include noted Island artists Brian Fisher, Lynn McClain, Ilse Reimnitz, and Marla Smith. The center offers tour brochures, public restrooms, a mobile phone charging station, and a display of four Island artists. Brochures can also be picked up at many Island businesses.
In addition to exploring a variety of media and styles, visitors will have the chance to meet the artists and discover the genesis of each piece of art.
The VIVA Studio Tour gives attendees the chance to purchase one-of-a-kind works that range from beautifully functional to decidedly decorative pieces, including oil paintings, ceramics, pastels, blown glass, linocuts, monoprints, acrylics, watercolors, photography, wearable fiber arts, jewelry, basketry, woodwork, stained glass, stonework, mosaics, garden art, sculpture, art cards, etched glass, artisan soap, and more.
Vashon Island offers a green getaway that combines rural charm with sophisticated tastes. Island restaurants serve an array of cuisines from Thai and vegetarian to southern comfort. For more information on Vashon Island, including where to stay and eat, visit https://VashonEvents.org.
